Haidu, Noah - Standards II

Pianist Noah Haidu sees a certain irony in his current recorded output. The new album is a breathtaking masterpiece featuring Haidu with two of the musics most esteemed players, Buster Williams on bass and Billy Hart on drums. Standards II is clearly not a piano date with hired gun sidemen. It showcases an evolving ensemble at its peak, nailing the essence of what a jazz trio should.
